AC Bonifacio is set to star in CW drama “Riverdale” — and has a dance-off with no less than Queen Bee Cheryl Blossom, played by Madelaine Petsch.
The 18-year-old actress, wearing a cheerleading outfit, dances opposite Petsch at the Riverdale school gym in a video shared on Instagram yesterday, Jan. 2. It was first posted by “Riverdale” creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
“[Starting] off the year right [with] a lil sneak peek to #Riverdale Season 5!” wrote the Fil-Canadian dancer and singer.
Details of Bonifacio’s character are yet to be revealed, though fans can soon find out when the show’s fifth season airs on Jan. 20.
Bonifacio has been based in Vancouver this year, the same city where she was born and raised. “Riverdale” also happens to be shot in the Canadian city. The show, a dramatic take on the characters of Archie Comics, stars KJ Apa as Archie Andrews, Lili Reinhart as Betty Cooper, Cole Sprouse as Jughead and Camila Mendes as Veronica Lodge. JB
